Extension summary
❗ Update: April 15th, 2024 We maintained PageMonitor since 2015 supporting every Chrome upgrade in that time. Regrettably Google is discontinuing SQL and, in spite of our best efforts, we are unable to deploy a version that is compatible with the new versions of Chrome.
▶️ Page monitoring going forward: To continue monitoring pages, please install our latest Visualping.io extension to: https://visualping.io/chrome-extension/
In this version, the Browser tab allows has the same functionality as PageMonitor and is free.
We are working on a new upgrade of Visualping's extension planned to be released this summer and it will be packed with the most up to date technology to allow you to monitor pages for free using your browser.
♻️ Migration We apologize for any inconvenience caused by data migration issues as we worked through Google’s discontinuation of WebSQL support. Please avoid closing your browser or triggering a chrome version upgrade until you attempt to migrate.
